Default Question regarding rainfall collection

Although I heard that Cedar Park and Home Depot were working a deal on
barrels I've not been able to confirm that with the city. On the other
hand, without rain there is not much use for a barrel :-(

I guess they could be considered yard art if decorated appropriately.

My question is what local Austin gardeners are using for rain
collection and their sources of supply for materials.

We might as well discuss it while waiting for some rain.............

There has been a seller of barrels on Craigslist lately that has blue
barrels, in various sizes, that contained Dr. Pepper syrup. 55gal are
$30. Search Craigslist for "barrel".


Thanks - looks promising
